As a 50yr old, slept in my car at st Andrew’s in order to see him play his last round there, and was very emotional when he stood on the swilken bridge for the last time. I was there to see him win in 1978 having slept in a tent. Got his autograph on the photo in the programme which I still cherish. He had time for everyone and respected everyone. Happy memories. Thanks Jack………

My sentiment exactly

[@mattvg1776]

I honestly didn't really plan on sitting and watching this entire hour-long interview, but these 2 legends kept me watching for the whole thing. It was awesome listening to them recount stories of their experiences past and a few details of their best friendships. I'm amazed at how Jack remembers so specifically not only past rounds he's played or the layout of each course, but he remembers EVERY SINGLE SHOT, and even the distance to the pin after each shot! INCREDIBLE! Thanks for this one, Nick! This was a real pleasure to watch.

Wonderful listening to this,. Amazing how Jack recounts shots from some of his great wins; I'll bet, though, he still remembers some of those painful losses, like for ie. Watson's chip in at Pebble at 17, at US Open. A pleasure to watch this.

I've listened to Mr Nicklaus for forty five years and I don't think I've ever heard him talk other than common sense with wisdom dignity and respect. I met him in 2010 in Manchester and was a nervous wreck. I was present at his ceremony in St Andrews last year with my daughter. A day we will remember forever.

For me, the greatest moment in sports (all sports) was the 86 Masters. I so clearly recall standing in my brothers kitchen watching Jack walk up the 18th fairway to the roar of the crowd. I knew I was watching the most incredible moment in golf history and I had to stand and clap my hands as tears rolled down my face. I’m 72 now but I remember that moment as if it was yesterday.

This is excellent. I got to shake Jack's hand at The Memorial back in the early 90's. On a tee. I was up at the rope and his caddy put the bag down in front of me. Jack came over to get his club and I instinctively reached out my hand, and he shook it. What a day when I was young. Will never forget it.

Hats off to you, Sir Nick.

Remember watching Nick Faldo playing a round on St. Andrews with Sam Snead a few days before The Open. Sneed was an elderly gentleman and his sight was bad. Nick guided him. Told him about direction, length, putting lines o.a. Sneed played a great round and did some incredible putts even though he couldn't see very far. Two incredible gentlemen. Think it was in 2000.

[@Golf_Hack]

It’s not often an interview can make me feel the way this did. With the state of our world these days it’s hard not to be down or even depressed. This interview brought back the nostalgia of the good old days for me and I’m only 45. I grew up watching both of these guy’s and the other player’s they spoke about like Arnold Palmer. They were my heroes and still are to this day. Jack designed a course near my house for the charity “Folds of Honor” that I play every chance I get. The charity helps the surviving families of fallen soldiers. Thank you Jack for giving back and for inspiring me and millions of people to be better.

Mr. Faldo, you are the man! My dad who passed away a few years ago is the reason I got into golf. He watched golf throughout the 80s and 90s in early thousands when I was too young to watch. Every time a golfer would hit a shot he would say something like “that just like Faldo”, or “ that’s not how Faldo does it”… for the longest time? I thought he was talking about some wild, exotic, animal or bird. As I eventually grew into the game, I realized obviously you were one of the best golfers of several generations. I’m not proud to be able to teach my son about the joys of golf and the golfers the game before me. We miss you and your voice on the live coverage, but so glad you found a happy place.

Jack has been a paragon of sportsmanship, honesty and humility on the golf course but I lost respect for him as a MAN when he went all in for DJT in 2020. He’s still the GOAT on the golf course, but to champion someone who is the opposite of one’s values is just sad.

[@nicholasschroeder3678]

True dat. It was a great disappointment for me since he was a hero to me as a kid. All I could finally conclude is that he's a product of his class: rich country club. Those are the folks and society he's been among his whole life, and he's going to think like them about social issues. Still think he's a decent guy, ESPECIALLY for a professional athlete, but he's got blinders on too about all the privilege he's enjoyed.

An incredible treat. I would read his books and advice in magazines on golf as a teen, and then attended THE Ohio State University where Jack of course was a legend - he and Woody. Playing Scarlet & Grey golf courses, you heard the stories from those who knew him, and it was a thrill to hear about his abilities to cut corners and drive past sand traps. Then I was able to attend tour events and follow him, and see his game up close and personal. I remember I was lucky once down the fairway and his ball landed in the rough practically by my feet. The green was blocked by a tree, and Jack walked up, took literally a few seconds to assess the situation, and boom, made his swing hooked the ball out of the rough around the tree, pin high. He looked over at those of us around him, slight smile, and off he went. OMG. SKILL! Always a gentlemen to the crowds, always in control even when facing intense pressure and difficult shots, easily the greatest golfer who ever played the game and no better ambassador for the game. The intelligence he shows in this interview is amazing. Go Bucs!

I knew nothing about golf, not even the rules and what I learned was from watching golf on tv, watching Jack most of all through the mid 80s when I was 12-14 yrs old. I recently found a video Jack made « golf my way » and low and behold, there was my adult swing. 40 years later still the same swing. I was never a good golfer, but what I know of the game I owe to Jack.

Jack is simply No 1 in virtually every category, the only exception is, the most travelled (Gary Player wins that one).

Nick..amazing visit with Jack. I’ve forwarded to all my golf bids. I still remember the ‘86 Masters. We playing golf in the am and walked into the clubhouse afterwards and sat down and watched the finish. I remember it like yesterday. Miss you on the broadcast, but keep this up! This will be available forever! Thanks!

Amazing - I could listen to both guys having a chat all day. Thanks Nick and Jack for everything you both did for so many years and I hear the passion in both your voices that make it so special. Most athletes I hear today sound annoyed and short with answers. I will definitely watch this over and over. Again, thanks so much.

Of all athletes, golf is where you find true role models and gentlemen. Absolute class.

You did great Nick! When you said “explain”. You made the interview. You listened! Which is more than most interviewers do. Good on you, as they say.
